Sleek and Straight

THE CUT

The long layers of this cut take away weight and bulk, giving hair the illusion of being all one length until it moves—then you see the lightweight texture throughout.

Hair that falls past the shoulders doesn’t have to be cut all one length. By varying the texture and length you’ll see a shape that looks like lived-in texture. This cut is high on the trend radar for those who absolutely love long hair.

A feather razor is used to break up the weight of long hair, but still maintains the length. By razoring the last 3-5 inches of the outline, the layers stay close to the shape, creating an illusion that the hair is all one length.

This style works with all hair textures that are straight to wavy, with medium to coarse density. All face shapes can wear this style.

For a second look, tie your hair into a high ponytail, gather the length and twist around until you create a bun. Slip a lightweight fabric elastic over the top of the bun and pull pieces loose for a lived-in top knot.
